COUNTS IN BAYLY CASE SCIENTIFIC ASPECTS MORE EXPERT ANALYSIS LANTERN SLIDES IN COURT
When the Auckland Supreme Court, which is lengthily engaged in hearing the charges of murder against William Alfred Bayly, adjourned yesterday afternoon until this morning, the witness box was still in occupancy by Dr. Dennis Brown, Lecturer in Physics at Auckland University College, who was subjected to minute interrogation by counsel on both sides and the Judge. The main phases still under consideration were those of experiments with rifles and cartridges and the alleged relationship of Bayly’s sheath knife to the cuts and grooves on timber, enlarged photographs being produced in illustrations, the lights in the Court being lowered at one stage of the proceedings in order to display lantern slides. Bayly, a Euawaro farmer, is arraigned on the dual count that he murdered Samuel Pender Lakey and his wife, Christobel-Lakey, at Euawaro, on or about October 15 last.
